After getting a 680 on my initial GMAT attempt, I had mixed feelings as the score was at the average mark. I knew that to improve my score, I had to work on my weaker areas. After having read multiple reviews on GMAT forums, I decided to opt for e-GMAT. The AI-based course helped me accurately identify my shortcomings. Focused prep in these areas, helped me strengthen the concepts, building a strong foundation. The last mile push, courtesy of Sigma-x mocks, coupled with the timely support from the e-GMAT mentors, ensured that I was test-ready, with me scoring 730 on the test day.
Strengths:
Practice test has resemblance to actual GMAT test and the analysis provided on the answers are very helpful as well
Would make the product better:
May be they are make the interface a bit better, the navigation can be improved
e-gmat helped me to develop my verbal skills, I saw a marked improvement in verbal score from V28 to V38 after I used e-gmat, this also helped me to improve the overall score from 640 to 700. The practice test (Scholarium) were very helpful and it helped me to understand the mistakes I was making. The analysis provided helped me to increase my accuracy. Besides, the mock test were aligned with GMAT test, and my final GMAT score was very close to the marks i got in my last 3 mocks. The quants section was also up to the mark , though i would say it was on the tougher side than actual test. At the end i believe e-gmat has the best content for serous GMAT takers.
Hi alankar70
Heartfelt Congratulations to you on your 700 score!
A 60-point overall improvement doubled with a 10-point Verbal improvement (V28 to V38) is certainly an accomplishment that needs to be shared and spread.
Your diligence throughout this journey has been at the core of your success.
You followed every suggested process to the ‘TEE’. Your improvement in your SC abilities was mainly due to the combination of your sincerity and the Meaning-based approach can be seen in the image below.

Strengths:
1) tailored approach
2) unlimited number of resources across Scholarium module and articles database for questions / concept clearing
3) figured out the right teaching approach from basics -> cementing -> testing
4) smartly identifying gaps in knowledge and working to fill them
5) responsive support
Would make the product better:
1) better/more seamless way to access official OG questions
2) live chat for more urgent queries
I was using myriad other programs before being connected to Rashmi at eGMAT. The difference between these platforms and eGMAT was the 1) tailored approach and 2) unlimited number of resources across Scholarium, module and articles database for questions / concept clearing. Also, the coach (Rashmi) was there every step of the way as a guiding light. I think eGMAT has figured out the right approach – 1) basics, 2) cementing the foundation and 3) testing to master comprehension in both Quant and Verbal. Especially in Verbal, the meaning-based approach & pre-thinking reading strategies, which are key to doing well in this section, are taught really well. eGMAT’s platform smartly uses AI to analyze and surface gaps in your knowledge so you always know where you should be paying more attention. The support via email & forum discussions is top-notch and very responsive. The current turnaround time is less than 24 hours.
Strengths:
Detailed videos
Concept files
Practice Quizzes
Performance Dashboard
Would make the product better:
Timing seemed to be quite lengthy and it is a significant time investment for a candidate, who is already in a busy job schedule. Look if you can optimize the concept video timings.
Hello everyone,
I gave my GMAT 1st attempt during August'2023, scored a mere 600 (Q47,V27). I was not happy with the score.
I took a few days break after the exam, during this period I introspected on my strengths and weaknesses, my study pattern etc. and I realized I need help for verbal section, and after some searching I decided to go with eGMAT . I liked the Personalized Study Plan (PSP) approach, the PSP helped by breaking down the entire preparation schedule with respect to my target score and current score.
I started with SC and completed the courses end to end. By the time I was done 50% of the course I could already feel improvement in understanding of the SC questions.
The approach of breaking down a question in segments was especially helpful to understand the intended meaning.
Through the concept quizzes and practice quizzes, ideas were reinforced and areas of conceptual gaps were identified and subsequently worked upon.
Then I went for the cementing quizzes and even though initially I did not achieve the target score but eventually I did by following the process.
Post completion of the Cementing quizzes I moved on to OG questions. I solved close to 80-100 questions only this time but I did detail analysis of each question of where I went right and wrong or took more time.
In November I took another shot at GMAT and time I scored 700 (Q48,V37). Verbal score improved by 10 points.
Being a working professional, I did not had enough time to cover the CR and RC sections. But I recommend fellow students to go through the master comprehension section, this will set up the base if you are weak in verbal. Also SC being a foundation section the improved ability in SC helped me decipher CR questions much faster, which in turn helped me to logically deconstruct RC passages.
Overall eGMAT module helped me to
1. Build a solid conceptual foundation and take right approach to GMAT.
2. Schedule the daily study time with its time tracker
3. Pin point areas of strengths and weaknesses with its AI enabled dashboards
Thanks and I wish all the aspirants Good Luck!
REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]
I would highly recommend e-GMAT as the bible when it comes to GMAT preparation. My 120 point score improvement from 580 to 700, is because of the detailed and meticulously built course content and processes of the course.
e-GMAT recommends the 3 stages of learning – first, you go through the concepts and quizzes. Second, is the cementing stage and third, test readiness.
I found the cementing stage to be the most crucial step in my journey as I faltered on many cementing quizzes when completing certain sub-sections. This exposed my gaps in preparation and helped mitigate them immediately.
Quant was my weaker section, so I worked on that first and completed the entire course. After taking GMAT twice, I can confidently say the e-GMAT course covers every topic tested on the exam and if you follow the processes mentioned, scoring high will not be an issue.
Verbal course was also extremely detailed, where the course starts right from the basics and covers advance concepts tested with sufficient examples and applications.
The most invaluable part of this journey was the mentor support. On writing to e-GMAT team, I was assigned Akash Aggarwal as my mentor who guided me through this entire journey.
Overall, if you are considering different products for your GMAT preparation, only buy one – the e-GMAT course. Trust me, you don’t need any other resource – not even OG books or GMAT club questions!
Strengths:
Scholaranium
Meaning approach to SC
Error log approach
Would make the product better:
Have option to set pace for videos
Overall a good course. The meaning based approach to SC really helps understand the sentence and improve SC. The scholaranium platform helps you identify weak areas and work towards it. Creating error log using the approach suggested by the course and going through it frequently helps you understand your repeat mistakes and avoid them in future. The prethinking approach for CR helps you analyze answer choices better. The enrollment in LMP program also really helped by defining timelines and pushing me to complete the tasks within the given time. The level of quant is a bit higher than what is expected in the official GMAT test

Strengths:
The meaning based approach for Verbal was a total game changer for me!
Would make the product better:
Update some VA modules to the new interface as seen in QA modules
The e-gmat course proved to be supremely helpful and comprehensive. The diagnostic Sigma-X mock was a great tool to understand the initial skill level and major gaps that needed to be bridged. Further, the customized time table / learning methodology was super helpful to streamline prep, especially for those who aren’t studying full time and are juggling prep with work.
The part that stood out to me the most was the meaning based approach for Verbal. Watching the first module alone helped me achieve my target VA score as it helped get rid of habitual instincts that creep in while solving verbal question sets.

Strengths:
Verbal section.
Hey, Everyone!
I recently gave my GMAT and scored a 760. I would like to thank e-GMAT for providing the necessary support. I signed up for their course based on recommendation from my friend and didn't regret it for once. I started with a Diagnostic Mock and scored a 690(Q49, V35). My major gaps were in the Verbal section and that is something taught really well at eGMAT. The way each of the concept is explained along with the signature problem solving structure for each of SC, CR and RC, I never saw the verbal section from that lens. I really started enjoying that learning phase, and when I say that I just don't mean it from a GMAT perspective.
Even though I didn't spend a lot of time on quants, I did go through certain concepts and mainly the data sufficiency questions, which again were taught in a very structured way which helped me increase my Q49 to Q50. The ability to create practice quizzes at multiple levels: Topic Wise, Sectional, Cross-sectional, was something which really helped getting exam ready and I found the mocks quite close to what I encountered in my actual exam. So overall, the course really helped me cover the distance from 690 to 760.
Thanks,
Amogh
Dear amoghagr,
Congratulations on your remarkable achievement of scoring 760 on the GMAT with a 7-point improvement to a V42 😊 This is your mentor Rashmi here. Your journey has been nothing short of inspiring.
Realizing that verbal was your weaker area post your first mock, you left no stone unturned toward your success. Starting with basics – learning concepts and applications to practicing building ability through cementing, you took all the necessary steps toward your success. See how in CR, internalizing the pre-thinking approach through this structured approach helped you improve to an 87% accuracy for hard questions while reducing the overall time to 1min 48 seconds:
Image link - https://success.e-gmat.com/Amoghagr-Hard-Accuracy-in-CR
It is this diligence and structured approach that helped you improve by an impressive 7-points in verbal and get to a V42.
In quants, despite starting out at Q49, in your quest to get to a Q50, you did not leave any stone unturned and through a PACE-driven study plan, recognized and worked on your weaker areas. This strategic approach not only helped you save over 45 hours of your prep time, but also ensured that you reached a Q50 on your attempt. Refer to this image how the Scholaranium data already predicted your Q50:

I am really glad to hear your positive experience with the course and it is heartening to know that you used the practice quizzes and mocks to get exam ready. This is the beauty of a data-driven approach to GMAT preparation – it not only helps you build ability but also point out the areas of incremental improvement which will help you get to that top score on the GMAT. I am impressed that you made the most of this feature and were able to get to your target score in your first GMAT attempt itself😊
Thank you for choosing e-GMAT and for recommending our course. Your success story is a testament to your hard work and dedication, and it motivates us to continue providing the best learning experience for our students.
Wishing you continued success in your future endeavours!

I specifically opted for eGMAT to access their highly reputed Verbal Content. The way they have structured the entire course content into digestible chunks which are easy to comprehend is what really makes the product stand out.
